U+52A5 "劥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
劥
U+52A5 "劥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character that combines the "力" (power or strength) radical with a phonetic component derived from "亢." Its primary meaning is associated with being strong, vigorous, or powerful, often describing a person’s physical strength or resolute spirit, though it is not commonly used in modern Chinese. This character falls within the Unicode CJK Unified Ideographs block, a collection of over 20,000 characters representing Chinese, Japanese, and Korean logographic writing systems. Despite its obscurity, "劥" retains historical linguistic value in classical Chinese texts where nuanced descriptions of strength or resilience were required.
